- bricestacey 17y agoIt's very real. Countries across Europe are passing similar laws, pressured heavily by US copyright lobbies. It's no surprise that the US is finally following suit. Ironically, these very laws are driving internet users to purchase anonymous VPNs to completely protect their privacy - preventing ISPs and government agencies from knowing anything at all concerning their online use. So, yes, it's real, but the ultimate outcome may be greater privacy.
